Amazing scenery
Bintan is a gorgeous island with a 1,700-year long history.
In 2000, LooLa was its first international resort, so we could pick Bintan's most beautiful spot .... it was love at first sight!
We're still in love, and our dedicated local staff keeps enhancing the beauty of LooLa and our environment.
LooLa and Sustainability
Our guests often ask us:
Can we make our stay both fun and meaningful?
The answer is a big YES ! LooLa is owned by two teachers (Marc van Loo and Isabelle Lacoste, the "Loo" and "La") who fell in love with Indonesia in their back-packer days in the late eighties.
Built in 2000, LooLa is run by our fully local staff, who help our guests engage with the local community.
Through our programs and our location in Bintan, all 17 United Nation Sustainable Development goals come to life – for all ages!
Take a magical tour to make eco come to life for you!
